Feher Ozon Paprika
75d to harvest
Feher Ozon Paprika unfurls with a luminous, waxy sheen—crisp, gently aromatic pods that shift from pale green to a creamy, sunlit yellow as they ripen. The flesh stays pleasantly firm and smooth, with a mild, paprika-leaning warmth that lends itself beautifully to drying and grinding, as well as fresh use for bright color and snap. Grow this wax pepper for dependable, uniform pods and a garden-to-pantry harvest that feels as vibrant as it tastes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I water Capsicum annuum during peak growth to avoid problems?
During flowering and fruit set, keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy: water when the top 1 inch feels dry. Aim for deep watering so moisture reaches the root zone, usually about 2–3 times per week depending on heat and container size, and reduce frequency if the soil stays wet. Avoid wetting foliage, because Capsicum annuum is prone to leaf and fruit diseases when leaves remain damp.
How can I tell when my Feher Ozon paprika pepper (Capsicum annuum) is ready to harvest?
Harvest around 70–80 days after transplanting (about 75 days to maturity) when pods have reached the intended color and are firm and glossy. For a fully ripe harvest, wait until the peppers turn their mature shade (typically pale to red depending on conditions) and the walls feel thick. Use pruning shears to cut the stem—pulling can damage plants and reduce later yields.
